New Perspectives on the Ecology and Evolution of Siboglinid Tubeworms
Hilario, Ana; Capa, Maria; Dahlgren, Thomas G.; Halanych, Kenneth M.; Little, Crispin T. S.; Thornhill, Daniel J.; Verna, Caroline; Glover, Adrian G.Siboglinids are tube-dwelling annelids that are important members of deep-sea chemosynthetic communities, which include hydrothermal vents, cold seeps, whale falls and reduced sediments. As adults, they lack a functional digestive system and rely on microbial endosymbionts for their energetic needs. Recent years have seen a revolution in our understanding of these fascinating worms. Molecular systematic methods...
New record of "Bathymodiolus" mauritanicus Cosel 2002 from the Gulf of Cadiz (N...
Genio, Luciana; Johnson, Shannon B.; Vrijenhoek, Robert C.; Cunha, Marina R.; Tyler, Paul A.; Kiel, Steffen; Little, Crispin T. S.The "Bathymodiolus" childressi group is the most geographically diverse assemblage of deep-sea mussel species. In this paper we consider several possible hypotheses to explain the present biogeographic distribution of the "B." childressi species complex. Mussels were collected for the first time from mud volcanoes in the Gulf of Cadiz (NE Atlantic Ocean) during the training through research (TTR) 16 research ex...
